Businesses, by definition, are actively engaged in commercial law - the generic term for almost all aspects of buying and selling - on a daily basis. Because commercial law issues are so prevalent in the life of a business, the Scopelitis firm concentrates on guiding its clients in a straightforward and efficient manner through the many commercial issues they face. We represent clients on commercial issues that range from ensuring that practical and effective contracts are used to the clients' full advantage to protecting the clients' ability to get paid - whether it be through proper perfection of lien rights, enforceable documentary sales such as letters of credit, or aggressive collection efforts.

Occasionally, clients are confronted with lawsuits involving any number of issues that may include personal liability, warranty, risk of loss, or damages issues such as recovery of lost profits. In such cases, Scopelitis lawyers attack the lawsuit with a cost-effective strategy of immediately identifying the primary legal and practical issues, performing a cost/benefit analysis to determine the proper course of action, and then aggressively pursuing a timely resolution through settlement discussions, mediation, litigation, or other appropriate avenues.

Often, clients simply have questions regarding aspects of their commercial activity on matters as diverse as bad checks, bankruptcy rights, or the applicability of any number of state and federal regulatory and commercial laws such as the various consumer protection laws and the Uniform Commercial Code. Regardless of the circumstance, we take pride in providing cost-effective and practical assistance to clients as they concentrate on making their business successful.
